So I quit my job about a year back to begin starting my own brand of footwear, I knew I couldn't just jump right in with my own designs and needed potential customers so I have started and successfully established customising shoes via painting/drawing/spray painting on them, being an avid artist that bit is easy! But if I am to become a world know brand I can't just be painting images on to shoes for people that choose their ideas from google of what they like, even with it being my IP surely copyrights will clash at some point and I want to grow beyond that so to incorporate my own brand and unique style.
I feel with over 10'000 potential customers on my business page and a potential celebrity endorsement coming up as well as a website and multiple social medias boosting options, that it may be time to start launching my own designs and styles. I'm guessing I'll need to find a manufacturer of shoes that can incorporate my brand/print designs and I am going to trial run my designs to see what people take an interest to the most before committing to that.
Basically I'm curious if footwear is a reliable ecommerce as a small company trying to grow and if anybody else has had success or failures starting their own line of clothing or just footwear be it quirky or generic ?
